PDG Ed Marek and Jeff Thiemann, Braver Angels Co-Leader for the Reduce the Rancor campaign were interviewed on the Searching For Service Radio program on AM950 KTNF.
Reduce the Rancor is a statewide campaign that calls on Minnesotans across the political spectrum – liberals, conservatives and independents – to help reduce hostile polarization during what promises to be a politically divisive election year.
The campaign is sponsored by the nonprofit Braver Angels and championed by the chairs of the state’s two major political parties and 21 organizations that include elected officials, colleges and universities, Minnesota Public Radio, professional associations, and religious and civic groups.
The campaign asks sponsoring organizations and individual Minnesotans to take at least one action to lower the temperature in their conversations about politics. See the Reduce the Rancor website for partners and ways to help reduce political hostility.
